Hazardous material testing of laboratory hoods related to renovation of a science (chemistry) lab including on-site testing of the residues within the individual laboratory hoods for pH, fluorides, oxidizers, hydrocarbons, perchlorates, mercury and radioactivity.

Asbestos inspection, development of the removal technical specifications, and project monitoring services for one of the largest asbestos removal projects in Idaho history. The renovation included the removal of approximately 250,000 square feet of asbestos containing fireproofing. The removal project lasted 21 months and required 20 negative pressure containments of approximately 12,000 square feet each. The building remained occupied during the entire project with the abatement company utilizing up to 20 employees per containment. The project was completed on time, within budget, and without any major change orders or delays. The asbestos was removed successfully without exposures to the building occupants or with releases of asbestos to the environment.

Evaluation of water intrusion and mold at an assisted living facility. IHR staff produced a scope of work for remediation of mold in the crawlspace of the building, conducted visual inspections and air clearance sampling post abatement.
